Gunzi's response was a chorus of madhatter-like giggling, and he clung tightly to the other, unable to control himself from nuzzling his head down into that dark spiky hair and all about choking Kiriwar as he squeezed his neck with glee.

"Ain't been no where, been looking for you!" he replied, the usual nonsensical answer of course. "Stayed with Linali, lost Linali, lost myself in the city, too. But now Gunzi's found a Kiriwar." Another fit of giggles, and he hugged him again, tightly. Usually his affection was more focused on rough-housing, but he had missed him, damnit!

Still, for old time's sake, his neck craned down and he bit Kiriwar's ear.

It was a love bite?
